Bishop’s Castle Arts Festival

The Arts Festival has been going for 14 years and has become a much loved, 5-day festival. We have workshops, talks, exhibitions, music, dance, competitions and open studios. We had over 60 different events in 2025 and it was our most successful festival so far, with lots of fantastic feedback.

It is always held during the February half-term holidays, so we make sure there are events each day for children.  Our aim is to make these events as inclusive as possible, so all children’s events are free with an invitation for donations.  Where we do charge we keep these charges as low as possible.. 

Next year’s festival will be from Wednesday 18th to Sunday 22nd February 2026

 
To help with funding the festival we have set up a Go Fund Me page and here is the link  –  https://gofund.me/f3dce943
 
Every donation will help, however small,   and will be very much appreciated.
